Evita: Andrew Lloyd Webber's Tony-Winning Musical

With music by Andrew Lloyd Webber and lyrics by Tim Rice, the compelling true story of Eva Perón comes to vivid life through stunning showstoppers like "Don't Cry for Me, Argentina," "Another Suitcase in Another Hall" and "High Flying Adored." Evita follows the path of the small-town peasant girl as she uses her considerable smarts and charisma to rise from the slums of Argentina to President Juan Perón's side as first lady, becoming one of South America's most powerful women. Though she was much beloved by her people as the voice of the poor, her inevitable downfall came through her unwavering ambition and a devastating illness, making her one of history's most tragic and dramatic figures. Direct from Broadway, this stunning production is directed by Tony nominee Michael Grandage and choreographed by Tony winner Rob Ashford.

Reviews & Ratings

This was a great story with fantastic sets, costumes and other production values. The singing for the most part was good but the problem I had was understanding the voices which made it extremely difficult to understand and follow the story line. The singers' diction was not very pronounced thus making it very difficult to understand the words of the song. I must admit that the lead singer had an extraordinary voice with excellent diction and I had no problem following the story line when he sang. Overall it was a great musical and I would recommend Evita to everyone.
